In the 4K HDR Production Zone, demonstrations will feature 4K HDR workflow solutions with Media Composer (Avid’s 4K nonlinear editing system) connected to Avid’s 4K compliant video I/O interface Artist｜DNｘIO, which incorporates hardware from Blackmagic Design, along with Blackmagic Design’s color grading software DaVinci Resolve 12.5 STUDIO running through Avid’s new 4K real-time storage device NEXIS E4.

Visitors will have the chance to see technology for general companies, view products and exhibits, and learn how they can easily use automated editing for various types of video content on the mobile app.
